Training for Valhalla

[bigaldevlin]

Alright guys so I've recently moved house, and have much more space now for my home gym, I've been building my gym equipment up slowly now (and posted the progress in the equipment threads - building Valhalla) and will start keeping track of my workouts once again

I'm making good progress and no better way to break in the gym with a wee deadlift workout

Bench press from the 28th of december working mostly around 140kg and then incline - first timenive fone it in years as now I have a folding bench

continental lift and press going up to 90kg for 4 sets

First workout with my new cage. this was filmed just before crimbo

I hardly ever train arms, find them boring, but this was an exception, had so much fun and was absolutely buzzing by the end.

So I have now decided to specialise in squat for a while. Basically over a 7 day period I'm doing 3-4 squat workout and interspersed with them 2-3 non leg days.
It's been really brutal si far but sk enjoyable. I very the intensity if the workouts throughout the week.
Here is week 1

This was on new years day working on bench up to 150kg 330lb, nice way to start the year

My second week of squat specialising continuing to push my PBs as much as possible

 

[bigaldevlin]

maxing out on 155kg 341lb bench press

 

[bigaldevlin]

so now that I have safety bars I thought I would put them to use to allow me to do rear seated shoulder press. this is almost impossible to do without this set up so had a lot of fun and managed 110kg 242lb.

Go big or go home! Big weights all the way with this style of workout, shrugs and partial deadlifts.

Officially a rest day, but couldn't help but have a playaround with some continental lifts and presses
